bug#37446: 26.2; feature request, git on GNU Emacs Reference Card

[VanL]

Hello,

I found my way to the following

+ https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/refcards/pdf/refcard.pdf

while looking at a dired buffer listing emacs's files and wanting to
find the keybinding to invoke `git fetch'.  Unfortunately, the refcard
has no section for git, which would be nice to have.  Can a future
revision of the refcard include a git section?  Thank you.

Emacs doesn't have a special git interface, but Emacs does have
`vc-dir', which does have commands like `+' which, if you're in a git
directory, will fetch and merge/rebase/whatever.

But the refcard doesn't cover vc mode -- it's only supposed to cover the
most basic stuff, I think, and it's pretty full already.  (It's only two
pages.)  So I think this is beyond the scope of the refcard, and I'm
closing this bug report.
